The Past Seven Days
by Andy Kellman
A mysterious band whose discography was limited to one excellent single on 4AD, it's uncertain who comprised the Past Seven Days. Their lone release, "Raindance" b/w "So Many Others," was released in a small pressing in 1981. Featuring scratchy guitars, sparse and angular rhythms, and moody vocals, both sides of the release sounded like a drier version of the Comsat Angels. Their entire recorded output can be obtained on the early 4AD compilation Natures Mortes, reissued in the U.K. by the label in the late '90s.
